Vanderboegh Medical Update


I spoke with Mike again this morning when he called me from the Intensive Care Unit at Trinity Medical Center in Birmingham.

He took four steps yesterday and will be walking again today.  In a milestone for gastrointestinal surgery recovery, he did want me to share that he has managed to...uh...expel methane twice now, and he dedicated the first occurrence to Eric Holder and the second to Little Jimmy Vann.

And he read a newspaper for the first time after surgery. He hurt himself laughing when he found out Defense Secretary Leon Panetta ordered U.S. Marines in Afghanistan to disarm for his visit, and wonders if perhaps he's feeling a bit guilty about that Constitutional oath he took...

Now for my reminder: Hold up on the emails and trying to post comments over at Sipsey Street. Have mercy on the guy, because you know he'll try to address every one, and we need to help him rest and recover.  Our inputs can wait.

If you want to communicate with him:
Support can still be sent via the donation button at Sipsey Street Irregulars, and to   P.O. Box 926, Pinson, AL 35126.  He’ll be in the hospital for some time, but flowers are not allowed in ICU.  Cards can be sent to him via Trinity Medical Center, 800 Montclair Road, Birmingham, AL 35213.

And it looks like we have someone interested in Mike's health reports:

  1. ROFL @ the DOJ post-surgical checkup. Don't they know that the internet leaves a trail and that all good blog owners follow the tracks daily? Of course they do. It was probably just Eric Holder wanting to post his get well wishes and a "Allah bless you".

    Thank you for all the updates and admonitions. Please tell Mike that

  2. It is possible, you know, that those "visitors" could be on our side.

    Yeah, possible and probable are not the same, but one can still hope for honorable badge holders.

    Doubtful, though, since they must know the agency is monitoring their internet and cellphone activities.

  4. Thanks for the update and glad his sense of humor is still intact.
    When i see visits from dot gov people, I am always of two minds: one, is it some devious dirtbag trying to intimidate or worry him; or two, is it a secret sympathizer trying to get a glimpse of truth to keep him afloat in the sea of lies and excrement which are the natural habitat of most gov employees.
    Either way, he needs to be wary of any new personnel who show up offering him a Special Secret Pain Injection or a choice between a blue and a red pill.
